+1 on the build quality. Pascal, can you provide more info on the "jack stands" and how they attach to the chassis?
You have to create hole in the underbody , and weld tube + support plate( with hole for pass the tube . The stand jack are home made .
Question for electric specialist : which of these 3 cable use for signal RPM of dasboard ( bleu /red / yelow- black )? This is picture of enter coil wiring( stock parts ) Thank you for your support
